Centers for Seniors<br />

From Page 6<br />

tween the county and businesses<br />

to create centers in churches. So<br />

far, the Accotink Unitarian Universalist<br />

Church, the Burke United<br />

Methodist Church and the Durga<br />

Temple were the first to support<br />

the Center Without Walls, but according<br />

to Braff, the county is looking<br />

at expanding that program.<br />

The Fairfax County Board of Supervisors<br />

is supportive of that effort.<br />

“As additional needs present<br />

themselves, we stand ready to expand<br />

implementing the Centers<br />

Without Walls in another location,”<br />

said Braff.<br />

There is a fee to participate at<br />

the county centers, based on income,<br />

ranging from $24 to $48 a<br />

year and meals are provided “if<br />

they need it,” Braff said. A meal<br />

donation is suggested based on a<br />

sliding scale. Transportation to the<br />

centers is available through Human<br />

Services Transportation.<br />

The Kingstowne Center for Active<br />

Adults is open during the<br />

weekday hours, and Bauer sees<br />

many participants that live with<br />

their adult children and come over<br />

to the center when the children are<br />

at work.<br />

On the weekends though, the<br />

center is occasionally rented for<br />

other activities such as board game<br />

events, or groups to gather. For<br />

example, on a recent Saturday, an<br />

instructional bee keeping lecture<br />

was held by a bee keeping group<br />

in one room, while a ‘gaming club’<br />

was holding a benefit for wounded<br />

warriors in the main area.<br />
